El Avance de los Derechos Humanos: Actualización sobre la Situación Mundial de Donativos de las Fundaciones explora los donativos para Derechos Humanos por donante, región, tema y enfoque de población en 2011 y también proporciona un resumen de los cambios principales en las subvenciones entre 2010 y 2011.
